Dad Joke of the Release

Where do cats go to get a new tail? A retail store 🤣

⚠️ Breaking Changes
This release moves away from bundling AGPL-licensed libraries such as PyMuPDF, Ghostscript, and CoherentPDF. If your workflow depends on these tools, you’ll now need to configure them manually via the Advanced Settings.

You can supply your own compatible versions of these libraries, as long as they conform to the expected interfaces and formats. This change was made to improve flexibility and maintain a clear separation of concerns.

The simple tutorial can be found here: Tutorial and the docs have been updated to reflect the same.
